I'm having a little bit of trouble getting past some of the clunky dialogue & some aspects that make me think "huh?" EG some of the students talk like they're in the 90s or early '00s, not 2016ish. Also I'm confused why a black girl getting her period at 12 is considered early? I (white) was 11 when I got mine & I teach a lot of 10-11 y/o girls of different cultures who have periods so this is maybe dated in general?

Really hope it gets to the BLM stuff soon because so far this is a rough, uncomfortable read. I feel like I’m 12/13 again and not having any voice against the bullies at school and authoritarian parenting at home. Also I’m uncomfortable with some of the victim-blaming that’s happening and hope it serves a good narrative point later! Like she realizes it or something!
